The other day when I was at Home Depot returning the light that didn’t work for the kids room (read more about that here), I saw that they had some new cinder block units. These ones were tall and thin and had three openings. I could totally see it as a centerpiece for a table […]

I found this wood hexagon table at goodwill a few months ago and it was just begging for a makeover. One of the legs was wobbly, but it was solid wood and only $8, so I bought it and hauled it home. First thing I did was use some wood glue and a clamp to […]

Welcome to the 2nd installment of my Gallery Wall Wednesday feature. Today I’m showing the mini gallery wall above my bed in the master bedroom. This started off with an awesome abstract painting I found at HomeGoods. I liked the white and silver frame, and the size was great, but I felt I needed to […]

I don’t know about your house, but the gold trend is alive and well in casa de Kailo Chic. When I was younger, I used to make fun of my mom’s gold lust.  I was all about silver back then. But, tastes change, kids grow up to be fashionable adults, and we frighteningly become our […]

Hello Monday! I hope you all had a good weekend. Were you able to tackle any projects you’ve been wanting to work on? We had some friends over for dinner on Saturday, but Sunday we were able to work on one small bathroom spruce up project. Our kids’ rooms are attached by a Jack and […]

I don’t know about you, but I am completely embracing the natural mineral trend in home decor. And what says that more than agate slices and gold? Several big name brands have agate coasters or door pulls, but they are all so expensive! Even Target jumped on the agate bandwagon with some cheap knock off […]

Finally my new laptop bags and camera/laptop bags are in stock and ready to ship out to all you lovelies! You may have seen the preorder listings on Amazon or in my etsy shop. But they are now in and ready to ship! There three new prints and two of my best sellers are back […]

  The weekend is here and Earth is right around the corner, so why not celebrate with some fancy marbled cookies! I had the idea for these cookies after I saw a blog post about color block dipped cookies, and thought they looked awesome. I had never considered applying craft techniques to my baked goods […]

As I promised yesterday in my turquoise and orange gallery wall post, I am going to show you the rest of Parker’s bedroom. On the wall opposite his dresser and gallery wall, is his crib wall that I adorned with a bunch of different colored triangle decals that I made with my vinyl cutter and […]

I recently realized that I have 6 gallery walls in my house, so I figured I would introduce a new weekly feature called Gallery Wall Wednesday where I show you one of my gallery walls each week and talk about the different aspects of the wall and how I put the pieces together. I also […]

Good morning everyone! I am so happy to report that I was able to pull off my idea for another Easter egg art piece. This time I used spray paint and leftover plastic Easter eggs to create an ombre effect piece of art.   To get this effect, I used several different shades of spray […]

If you are a parent like me (or even an aunt or uncle), you probably have some spare plastic Easter eggs laying around after the holiday. I know I sure do! A few years ago I turned the leftover Easter eggs into popsicles for my daughter and her friends. But this year, I wanted to […]
